Donations Doubled during Big Give Arts For Impact Week
15 March 2024
"Union Chapel is a very special and unique venue where I have performed 2 of the greatest shows of my career. The fact that they also impact and inspire the local community and through art, music and education is something that I happily give my complete support to." - OKIEM, award-winning pianist/composer
We're calling on all who love Union Chapel to donate to our Arts For Impact appeal from midday 19 - 26 March 2024 and Big Give will double that donation at no extra cost to you!
Our vision is to be an inspirational home for all communities; where arts, culture, heritage and social justice activities work in Union. We are determined to keep our Grade I & II* listed buildings open to all to provide inclusive opportunities to access high quality arts and services.
"Union Chapel is not just a venue; it is the centre of the hub. It is a community organisation. It is a space of belonging." - Amanuel, Head of Margins
With your help, we can make more people respond to our arts programme like the below;
"The chance to express myself and improve my assertiveness skills. I couldn't participate if it wasn't free! Very enjoyable and lucky to have you all" - Creative campaigning workshop participant
"I thoroughly enjoy the mix, the people, the enthusiasm, the talent, the willingness to share lived and creative experience" - Legislative theatre workshop participant
“Playing Union Chapel was a huge dream of mine. As an emerging artist it’s really important to have venues that allow you to play support slots so hopefully this is something that myself and other emerging artists are able to do more of” - Ashaine White - New Voices' Talent Competition finalist
“To have the opportunity to build on the organ’s rich history and bring it to the attention of a new generation is incredibly exciting” - Claire M Singer, Music Director of the Organ
"It was a great privilege to meet so many nice people from diverse backgrounds and it was inspiring to see everyone working together." - Sunday School Stories Workshop participant
